Red
Bloodworm
Bloodworm trout flies are absolutely essential patterns for Stillwater
and rever fishing - they're some of the most effective flies you can have for
targeting trout feeding on this crucial food source!
Bloodworm flies imitate the larvae of chironomid midges - those
bright red, worm-like creatures that live in the mud and silt of lake bottoms
and als earthworms. Despite the name, they're not actually worms but the larval
stage of non-biting midges.
What They Imitate:
Bloodworms are incredibly abundant in many still waters and
represent a high-protein food source that trout feed on heavily, especially
during colder months when other food is scarce. They're like "candy"
to trout!
